The Baptism of Jesus (My First Bible Stories)

John the Baptist lived a simple life. He went around sharing his important message and persuading people to let him wash their sins away. He told people to live better lives and prepare for someone who could baptize not with water but with God’s love. This someone was Jesus and he did come and he asked John to baptize him. Once baptized Jesus went into the desert where the devil tested him, but three times he refused to be tempted. After rebutting the devil he went to spread John the Baptist important message. Language is simple and easy to understand. The detailed illustrations support the text and provide ideal opportunities for spotting things and for further discussion. These six titles are the perfect accompaniment to QED’s My First Bible Stories: Old Testament.
